Civilized Fishbot posted:I don't see how Amber making fun of cis women who get hysterectomies makes her a TERF. It's weird, but it's talking poo poo about cis people, right? How does trans stuff come in? Okay so...like my post about it said, what is the implied issue with women doing that? WHy does amber think it's a bad thing? Because the Statement is "They're choosing (please ignore any of the valid medical explanations for this) this and that's inherently bad" which implies "They're lesser for it" or "They have made a wrong choice with their body" which is like TERF gender/sex essentialism 101. Combine that with her making it said like they just do it on a whim cause "Boo hoo I have menstrual problems" it's a weird TERF rear end take ZenMasterBullshit fucked around with this message at 16:29 on Jul 5, 2019 |

color me unconvinced, as I think she's being poisonously ironic rather than TERF I could be horribly wrong, but I'd rather a benefit of doubt given Anna in the drat article

i think that getting unironically worked up about anything relating to twitter/podcasting/brooklyn/whatever drama is potentially the most harmful thing you can do to yourself

It can't really be a TERF thing unless she's talking about trans people. What is the original context? Amber has always been "weird" about procreation, seeing it as a core part of the human experience and not getting onto the child-free hype train. Is this about that? Or is she complaining about women going to rather extreme lengths in avoiding menstruation? Which is also weird I guess, but still not TERFy. Both of those options just seem like regular radfem stuff when it veers into being proscriptive; which I mean, is going to offend people and likely get weird, but it's hard to be political without expressing an opinion on how people should live.

Complaining about upper class women getting hysterectomies is a pointless take that speaks to Amber's creepy distaste for feminist issues, but it doesn't sound like transphobia to me. Giving an interview to a rag that celebrates making GBS threads on minorities under the guise of irreverence is the much bigger tell.

my step-sister got a hysterectomy because she had something wrong with her ovaries and the doctor said she had a massive chance to come down with ovarian cancer. what a dumb bitch.

One of the biggest reasons employers cite for not treating women employees equally is the possibility of pregnancy interrupting their work and requiring paid leave, etc., so for a woman who wants to achieve a successful career, capitalism's thumb is on the scale when they weigh the possibility of getting a hysterectomy. In a better society it would be a fully self-actualizing choice and not a commodification of the body, but here we are.

Why the gently caress is Amber giving an interview to Spiked? I swear every time I see those Red Scare womans names it's connected to them saying the dumbest poo poo.

The exact person she brought up. she had a hysterectomy due to severe endometriosis, a very painful disorder which a lot of the time makes you infertile anyway. Dunham is an idiot but she didn't do it for no reason. the fact that she felt like she needed to "celebrate" it is down to her uniquely horrible personality.

I love that Amber pulled some boomer brain poo poo of "I read online that Lena Dunham wrote an article about how everyone is just getting their genitals removed cause it's trendy" and people are willing to defend it. Like holy poo poo do I have some articles about Rainbow Parties and the Knock Out game that are gonna blow your loving mind.

Trust fund coke addict hipster living in her gentrified neighbourhood feels comfortable enough to tell the left how the left should organise around what's pleasing to her idea of what real people think. In Living Fascism no less. Red Scare is a Psyop.

I guess if you spend all your time chumming around with right wing socialites, you’ll eventually start absorbing their opinions and worldview and become a right wing socialite. Weird.

I am never surprised when I see that media and right-wingers learned about antifa in 2016 at the earliest and still don't have a clear concept of it but a person pretending to know a thing or two about the left saying that poo poo is wild
